Skye Prower

(ooc: of course he wouldn't. That's why it was such a bizarre image.)

(ooc: I now have an image of Prime Skye shooting Locke with a sniper rifle just as he makes his announcement! :wacko: )

"Better than the ones she had before. I hope she'll be back soon, I need to apologise to her." ------------------------------------ Melody giggled slightly at the compliment. "Just enjoying the quiet beach. Is Dad still inside? There's something important I want to ask him." (ooc: Not so sure. One word in the wrong place from Locke could mean Prime Melody and Skye never come to exist. 'cept they have those time-armband things, which just leads to further complications...)

"I'll see what he says, but I really don't know where that idea came from. I think I was pondering ideas for my future without realising it."

"Oh, I'm plenty crazy already. Hey, if something happened to Knuckles, do you think Dad would make me a Guardian?"

"It'll keep things interesting. At least I'm not gonna have a dull life. I'd hate that."

Please stop. Think of the children!

"It wasn't Dad. Someone called... was it Solly-in-o-ger? Or one of the other ones? I dunno, most have funny names, and even wireder personlities. At least me and Skye fit right in!"

Oh dear.

"You know, I'm amazed most of the Guardians aren't in an asylum already. The ones I've heard Dad talk about, well, they sound a little crazy at best. Do you know they have a swimming pool in their library?"

"Though it would make extra problems for Dad. Even more so if the papers found out he thought his son was another celebrity!"

"Hehehe. You know, if that story got out, it would solve all my problems!"

"Thanks Rouge." Melody began laughing as well. "And imagine the scandal if he tried to explain the missing person was his daughter!"

"Okay, we'll promise to always trust each other forever. Promise?" Melody laughed a little. "Pictures of me all over the place with a missing tag. The papers would have a field day with 'famous singer kidnapped'! Hehehe."

"You have NO idea how good it feels to know there are people you can actually put your trust in without needed to worry about a knife in you back. Oh boy, I hope nobody realised I left. They might start worrying."

"Hehe. Okay. Thanks for covering me."

"No, they were taking about some biological mind-scrambling thing that'll happen in a few years. But you're right, I should make the most of now." ------------------------ "Ok, I will. I just hope that if Skye does decide to go now, Mom and Dad won't feel like I've somehow ruined the vacation."

"From what Uncle Shadow and Glen were saying, growing up is anything but normal." --------------------------- "Cool. Though... hmmm... If I bring it up now, that might mean Skye misses the holiday. On the other hand, he might be able to build something in a day that will help us blend in..." (ooc: back in a bit. Time to walk the dog!)

"Yeah, but... I shouldn't have been so selfish. I should have asked how she was coping. Heh, I'm actually feeling a little guilty. Maybe I am changing?" Skye gave a small smile. ----------------------------- "I think we need to get him to work with Hope as soon as possible. Give him a tech or magic problem to solve and he'll be happy for days."

"It... it's probably my fault. Here I am, going on and on about my problems, and not caring at all about how she's feeling." --------------------------------- "It's getting a little cold out here. What's say we head back. I hope Skye will have cheered up by now."

"Funny, I thought you always seemed to be the one to out-argue Shadow. And thank you. It's nice to know you're all here for me. Now I need to think about what I want to do next."

"I do understand that. But it doesn't make me any happier. I've always needed to stand out from the crowd, so I want to stand out from, erm, myself, as much as I can. I know, it probably sounds silly."

"ButButButButBut... I don't like the idea that who I am is just a copy of someone else. I want to be UNIQUE! Special. That's why I really want to change who I am."

"Heh heh, yeah. And we're here together as one happy family. Isn't that right Melody? ...Melody?" ------------------------- "I don't even want to think about that. It's bad enough worrying that I might just be a cheap knock-off of myself... erm, heh, pretend you didn't hear that!"

"As long as I know there's someone there who'll help me if I start to slip back, I'm sure I'll manage." ---------------------------------- "I think Skye said something about him freaking out and trying to run when he saw it happen, but his dream world was starting to collapse at the time and I was more interested in getting out of his head."
